Missy died suddenly and without a warning, as described on her page. I wanted to have a look inside of her to see if I could see anything but she basically looked so healthy. I don't think I've ever seen such a small spleen and heart, the heart looked and felt just so normal, not floppy and enlarged and not hard. So either her insulinoma released a huge amount of insulin and killed her, or she was bitten or stung by something. We have seen false widow spiders around which could be a possibility. I just don't know what to make of her back, it looks like a severe infection developed. She was fine when I let her out at 8:30 in the morning, and about 2-3 hours later she was dead- we found her in the evening when Tammy dragged her dead body out of a play pipe upstairs...
